Multi-Function Band and Method of Use

Abstract

A multi-function band and method therefore having a material formed into a body and an adjuster coupled with the body and accessible to the user wherein the user can use the bands as is for applications or withdraw a variable portion of the adjuster causing the material to be gathered into a formation for use in applications.

I claim: 
     
         1 . A wearable apparatus comprising:
 a wearable cloth band;
 said band having a string means therein, wherein pulling on said string means causes said band to gather into a different form, whereby the band has multiple wearable uses. 
   
     
     
         2 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the string is elastic. 
     
     
         3 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the band features at least two openings, whereby the openings are designed to allow a string to pass through. 
     
     
         4 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein a portion of the string is exposed outside of the band between the at least two openings. 
     
     
         5 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the cloth band is further defined by polyester. 
     
     
         6 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the cloth band is further defined by nylon. 
     
     
         7 . The apparatus of  claim 3 , wherein the openings are reinforced with grommets. 
     
     
         8 . The apparatus of  claim 1 , wherein the apparatus is further defined by a cord lock toggle disposed along the string. 
     
     
         9 . A wearable apparatus comprising:
 a cloth band, wherein the band features a hollow cavity within the band;   at least two openings in the band positioned in line with each other; and   an adjuster, wherein the adjuster is a closed loop that is threaded internally through the cavity and externally between the openings.   
     
     
         10 . The wearable apparatus of  claim 9 , wherein the adjuster is an elastic string. 
     
     
         11 . The wearable apparatus of  claim 9 , wherein the wearable apparatus is further defined by a cord lock toggle disposed along the adjuster. 
     
     
         12 . The wearable apparatus of  claim 9 , wherein the openings are reinforced with grommets. 
     
     
         13 . The apparatus of  claim 9 , wherein the cloth band is further defined by polyester. 
     
     
         14 . The apparatus of  claim 9 , wherein the cloth band is further defined by nylon. 
     
     
         15 . A method of converting a hairband comprising the steps of:
 obtaining a multi-function band comprising a cloth band, wherein the band features a hollow cavity within the band, at least two openings in the band positioned in line with each other, and an adjuster, wherein the adjuster is a closed loop that is threaded internally through the cavity and externally between the openings, whereby the material of the band is taut and substantially covers the adjuster;   pulling on the exposed portion of the adjuster between the openings to a desired length, whereby the cloth band gathers and more of the adjuster is exposed to the external environment; and   applying the resulting loop from the adjuster to an object.   
     
     
         16 . The method of  claim 15  further defined by pulling on the gathered cloth band, whereby the cloth band slides along the adjuster until it substantially covers the adjuster, whereby the cloth band resembles a headband.
